Nestin expression in the spinal cord of mice treated with or without BSYSC 20 and 40 dpi. A significant decreased Nestin expression was found in the spinal cord of 20 dpi in BSYSC mice, but increased Nestin was found 40 dpi. a The representative immunofluorescent staining of Nestin was shown in each group, magnification (×40). b Semi-quantification of integrated optical density (IOD) on Nestin expression was exhibited. Data are expressed as means ± SE, n = 5 for each group. *** p < 0.01 vs. NC; # p < 0.05, ## p < 0.01, ### p < 0.001 vs. MO
